CHAUSSON: Concerto in D major for Violin, 
Piano and String Quartet, Op. 21

A dream team of noted musicians come together to perform Chausson’s rarely heard concerto, a rich, warm-sounding, melodic example of late French Romanticism. Chausson called the two main instruments "projections against the quartet background." We call it a neglected masterpiece and posterity vigorously agrees.
